Baller Cammit Posted September 12, 2022 Baller Share Posted September 12, 2022 Has anyone experienced alligator gars biting and ruining buoys? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to stop this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BKistler Posted September 12, 2022 Baller Share Posted September 12, 2022 I’m curious. How do you know that gars are the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Cammit Posted September 12, 2022 Author Baller Share Posted September 12, 2022 Don’t know for sure, that’s what a friend is saying. I don’t ski at this lake often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller ScottScott Posted September 12, 2022 Baller Share Posted September 12, 2022 Maybe they're just in denial that there are alligators (not gar) in their lake. I replace buoys often with a row of puncture marks on it....aint no gar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BKistler Posted September 12, 2022 Baller Share Posted September 12, 2022 I doubt seriously that gars are the problem. We have them in our lake and the only damage to buoys comes from two legged mammals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller BraceMaker Posted September 12, 2022 Baller Share Posted September 12, 2022 Well dangle some shredded poly rope under the bouy. Gar will hit it and get tangled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
